I am just asking the question, hoping the good folks that follow DV will fill in the blanks. DV-land has not let me down yet. They have actually helped in many ways. For me, i have been taking BP meds for 15-20 years, and statins for maybe half that time. Currently I take 20 mg of Benicar twice a day. I have cut back on this by one pill a day now and then. Also I take 20 mg Atorvastatin, once a day. I know I need to cut down, or eliminate all these. I feel like I am risking my health, heart, and family when I do. Darned if I keep on taking the meds and darned if I stop them. The other day the Boss (my wife) rattled off a bunch of side effects to "statins" some of which I have. (Sore knees feeling like the tendons are to tight when I deep knee bend.) For the record on my recent annual physical, I am a ok, and my cholesterol levels were perfect. Decent HDL's and good LDL's . I seek "the best most effective advice" here. Something, a routine, a combination of things, that is preferably organic or at least "healthy" that won't substitute one set of side effects for another. I would hopefully not break the bank, but am willing to spend what is needed. My family is the ultimate prize here. And Grand kids after my children get married. No pressure on ANYONE this includes Thaiexpat and TankDude, but if you should share stuff ... eh ... that would be Ok too. Thats all for now. Lookin forward to the results ya'll . God Bless You.
